Did Google stop supporting Android Eclipse Plugin?

If the question is not for here, I will remove it.

Does someone knows if Android has stopped supporting the Eclipse Plugin? Now when you enter their site from googling "Android SDK" you get to download Android Studio, and I can't find where is the Eclipse plugin... I remember they said they won't stop supporting it, but well, its Google after all... So someone knows?

Per the Android Development Tools page:

Note: If you have been using Eclipse with ADT, be aware that Android Studio is now the official IDE for Android, so you should migrate to Android Studio to receive all the latest IDE updates. For help moving projects, see Migrating to Android Studio.
